Excerpt

Home is often used by a variety of programs use store configuration files and directories along with some cached information. These directories can contain many files and use up quite a bit of storage. An example is vscode, which stores quite a bit of data within the .vscode-server  directory located in $HOME . This directory can contain upwards of 1000 files and use on the order of 100 MB. This will impact your quota on home. We recommend moving such directories to a "fakeHome" directory in: /software/projects/<project>/<username>/fakeHome. Then generate a symbolic link in $HOME that points to the corresponding directory:

Column


Code Block
languagebash
themeDJango
titleTerminal X. Setting .vscode-server directory out of the HOME directory
$ mkdir -p $MYSOFTWARE/fakeHome
$ cp mv-r $HOME/.vscode-server $MYSOFTWARE/fakeHome             # if .vscode_server dir alreadyinitially exists in your $HOME 
$ mkdirrm -pr $MYSOFTWARE/fakeHome$HOME/.vscode-server        # if .vscode_server does not exist yet in your $HOME $ cd $HOME $ ln -s $MYSOFTWARE/ # if .vscode_server dir initially exists in $HOME
$ mkdir -p $MYSOFTWARE/fakeHome/.vscode-server      # if .vscode_server did #not generateinitially aexisted symbolicin link$HOME
(make$ sureln you are in $HOME)-s $MYSOFTWARE/fakeHome/.vscode-server $HOME/.vscode-server       # generate a symbolic link


Note that we are using cp + rm and not mv to transfer the .vscode-server directory to another filesystem in order to get the right ownership of files in the new filesystem and remove their original ownership that is consuming the $HOME quota, otherwise the quota of the transferred files would still be assigned to $HOME quota.

Further explanation of quotas can be found in Pawsey Filesystems and their Use.
